seat belt receivers interchange?
Yes - i searched. NO luck.
2 questions here. My retractor belts are fine, the receivers are shot. And i don't just mean the little red buttons. The housing is cracked and won't hold together. On the fronts. So,
1/ do the SIDES interchange? I can find a passengers/right reciever, but not a left. They look like they should swap between DS and PS?
2/ does the receiver for a 4th gen fit the buckle on a 3rd gen? I can find 4th gen receivers all over the place, in the right color even.
Thanks in advance!

1. The passenger and driver side seat belts are different lengths. (At least, they are on my car and the car I pulled my belts from.
2. I do not know. I do know 4th gen belts swap over though.

I dont think the 3rd gen belts will latch into a 4th gen receiver

Andrew - yup, you are right! I didnt' think about that, but when i looked at some pictures for sale, sure enough, they ARE different lengths. I wonder why....
yes, i'm hearing they don't interchange. buckles are different, darn it. But a board member had some PRISTINE black 3rd gen receivers, and I bought 'em, so I think i'm good to go.
Thanks everyone!
